Chapter 293 Keeping warm and keeping out the cold
Bi Zhuo nodded clearly, and said again: "We went out this afternoon."

"I know, Siss's mother saw you go out with Siss." The patriarch said, "I heard that you went with Siss to find the corpses that appeared in the psychic waterfall?"

Bi Zhuo nodded: "I found several."

"How is it? Do you have any clues?" the patriarch asked, and the little elder listened intently.

"We heard from Sissy that her mother has confessed to you that the corpses of those purebreds were killed by the elders?" Bi Zhuo didn't rush to answer her, but started to understand the situation first.

In this matter, Patriarch Mary had no intention of hiding anything: "Well... Her mother did confess something, the birds that suck purebred human blood are also raised by the elders to collect human blood. "

Hearing what Patriarch Mary said, Chi Zhenzhen's attention was immediately attracted.

Before confessing, Patriarch Mary's attitude towards the great elder was very trusting and affirmative, but now, Patriarch Mary seems to only feel pity for him.

"Why collect human blood?" Pi Zhuo asked.

"Her mother is not particularly clear about the specific situation, she just knows that he is doing this." The patriarch replied.

The little elder sighed, and also had a regretful expression on his face: "I didn't expect that the always honest and loyal elder would do such a thing in secret, but I have heard a rumor that the blood of a purebred person It can restore the fish tail injured by Yu Tianye, but this is just a rumor."

"Where did you hear the rumor?" Bi Zhuo asked, staring at him.

"Forget, I heard this a long time ago." The little elder said calmly.

Chi Zhenzhen heard that Bi Zhuo asked these few questions, and couldn't help but want to speak, but she knew that it was not appropriate at all. It seemed that she, a purebred, could not participate in such a discussion, so she could only be a quiet person. bystanders.

"How is this possible?" Patriarch Mary didn't believe it at all, "If the blood of a purebred person can restore the fish tail that Yu Tianye injured, then why does our mermaid tribe set up such a punishment, and Yu Tianye has always been It is kept by the Great Elder."

The implication is that he doesn't have to do this at all.

Chi Zhenzhen heard it very clearly. Just now she was still thinking about saying a few words, don't push all the wrong things on the disappearing elder. It seems that Patriarch Mary only looks very sorry on the surface, but in her heart she hasn't. Completely negate the Great Elder.

Patriarch Mary asked the question just now again: "Have you found any clues on these mummy bodies?"

Only then did Bi Zhuo answer her question: "Siss found the scales of your Great Elder under several corpses, but she didn't find any trace of the Great Elder."

After hearing this, the little elder became angry: "Look, patriarch, this is the evidence."

The patriarch hummed and seemed not to like the little elder's insistence on the great elder.

Chi Zhenzhen had just finished eating half of the fish in her hand, and she tore off a large piece for the cub. At this moment, she handed over a small fish, which was raw.

"Sister, let me eat."

Chi Zhenzhen looked up along the hand holding the small fish, and saw Odo's face that was almost covered with scales.

She had seen Odo's face before, so she didn't feel too scared about this scaled face, but Odo suddenly handed over a fish, and the light in the cave was not particularly bright, plus This lit fire...

Chi Zhenzhen was taken aback.

But she quickly restrained her frightened expression, and took the fish he kindly handed over: "Thank you."

Odo's eyes darkened for a moment, no matter how quickly her expression was closed, he could still see the trace of fright: "It should be."

As soon as the words fell, Chi Zhenzhen's hand was empty, and the little fish was directly snatched by Luo Gu and thrown to the cub's mouth.

When the cub saw this little fish, he yelled twice excitedly.

"..." Embarrassment, really embarrassment.

Patriarch Mary also noticed their movement, and said quickly: "Odo, Luogu's spouse is not used to eating raw fish, so don't give her raw fish."

"So..." Otto expressed understanding, "I thought my sister couldn't eat it because of my face."

"Odo." Patriarch Mary's voice became louder, reminding him not to say such words.

But these words were heard clearly by Chi Zhenzhen, not only her, but also Luo Gu and the others could hear them clearly.

I don't know why, when Chi Zhenzhen heard him say this, not only did he not have any sympathy for him, but it sounded very uncomfortable.

But she still said: "How come? You are a mermaid tribe, and the scales on your body are your symbols, and they are also good things that can keep you warm and cold. How can people see the scales that grow like this and can't eat?"

After hearing her words, Otto asked back: "Sister really thinks so?"

"Yes." Chi Zhenzhen nodded and said sincerely.

Odo was happy at once, and couldn't stop smiling: "That's good, but if my sister is really scared, I have to leave first."

Chi Zhenzhen smiled awkwardly, and she glanced at Luo Gu's face, as if she was not as angry as she imagined.

"Sister, your eyes are really beautiful." He mentioned the eyes again.

Chi Zhen's heart skipped a beat, and he didn't know what else to say except thank you.

Fortunately, Odo took a few steps back to stay away from the fire, and Chi Zhenzhen also took advantage of the situation to notice that his skin that was not covered by scales was faintly red.

This reddened skin looks very abnormal, even if it is baked by flames, normal skin will not turn red so quickly.

Patriarch Mary saw his flushed skin at a glance, and said, "Odo, you go back first."

Odo didn't look very happy, but he still listened to his mother and left.

Chi Zhenzhen watched him jump down from the cave entrance, and suddenly remembered the smell he smelled before...

The smell he smelled when he saw Odo in this cave for the first time, and the smell left in the eye sockets of those mummified corpses.

In fact, she was already sure in her heart that the son of the patriarch Mary was related to these mummies whose eyes had been gouged out, but after talking with Odo at such a close distance just now, she didn't smell the smell at all.

how can that be……

Chi Zhenzhen suddenly doubted his sense of smell.

She withdrew her gaze and glanced at Luo Gu and Bi Zhuo. They hadn't smelled such a strong sense of smell twice before, let alone now.

So I don't expect to be able to determine the answer from them.

"I'm sorry, Luo Gu's spouse. People in our mermaid tribe seldom have contact with outsiders, so Odo is a little curious about you." Patriarch Mary said apologetically, and the most important thing was to explain to Luo Gu.

However, Luo Gu had an expression of not caring about it at all, and continued to grill fish for Chi Zhenzhen in silence.
